Chapter 143: Chinese New Year

Fu Wanxi accompanied Xu Simu out to go shopping.

The two beauties, plus the little girl sitting in the stroller carved jade, were very eye-catching along the way.

Xiao Lingyun's eyes became brighter and brighter, and her face was full of baby fat, which was so cute.

Fu Wanxi and Xu Simu both like beautiful things, when they came to the baby store, all kinds of good-looking clothes were dressed up on Xiao Lingyun, and then they wore a rabbit hairpin, they were just little child stars.

Xiao Lingyun is also rare not to find her father, she sat obediently, letting Fu Wanxi and Xu Simu tinker with her, changing her clothes one after another, one look better than the other.

The store manager said that he would pay for Xiao Lingyun's photo to use as a promotional photo.

In the end, the two returned with a full load and bought Xiao Lingyun a baby stroller and several sets of toys to develop intelligence.

When he arrived at the Zhou family's mansion, Xu Simu called Lin Huarui and asked someone to come over to help carry things.

I wanted Fu Wanxi to come to the house for a meal, but I didn't expect Fu Wanxi to suddenly receive a phone call.

It was Song Liang who called.

"What?!Okay, I'll be right over. ”

Xu Simu noticed that Fu Wanxi's face changed suddenly, and couldn't help asking, "What happened?"

"Song Liang was beaten, I have to go over immediately. ”

Fu Wanxi didn't have a car, and it was not easy to stop a taxi here, so Xu Simu handed Xiao Lingyun to Aunt Gu, "I'll drive you over." ”

Fu Wanxi did not refuse.

Xu Simu followed the address to find it, it was a bar.

It stands to reason that at this time, it is not yet night, it has not yet reached the peak of the nightlife of the bar, and the people inside are also bustling.

Xu Simu parked the car aside and followed Fu Wanxi in.

Although there are not many people, the pole dance is still dancing on the stage, and the energetic DJ is still on.

rushed to the box that the bartender called, and there was no one in it except for Song Liang, who fell to the ground.

Fu Wanxi ran over and turned Song Liang up, and when she saw the blood on Song Liang's face, she was so frightened that she froze.

Fortunately, Xu Simu was not in it at this time, and there was still a trace of clarity in his mind, so he called the emergency number in time.

The ambulance took Song Liang away.

The gang was not minor, with serious injuries, fractured bones, plus three broken ribs, broken tibia, and hemorrhage in the lungs.

This year, Song Liang is going to spend time in the hospital.

Xu Simu saw that Fu Wanxi was a little distraught, so she called Xing Na, who came later, to help with the hospitalization procedures, and she pulled Fu Wanxi aside.

"What's going on?"

Fu Wanxi's mind was pulled back.

She clenched her fists, "It was Fu Hang who found someone to beat him." ”

Xu Simu paused for a moment, "No." ”

"It's him. ”

Fu Wanxi is very sure.

Xu Simu pursed her lips and didn't say anything.

The affairs of the Fu family, the affairs between Fu Hang and Fu Wanxi, are too complicated, and it is inconvenient for her to get involved.

Xu Simu held Fu Wanxi's shoulders and asked her to sit on the public seat and rest for a while.

"When are you going to go abroad with Song Liang?"

"It was decided to go to summer, but now it seems ......"

It's going to be in advance.

Fu Wanxi looked in the direction of the ward, "He is innocent." ”

Xu Simu patted Fu Wanxi's back.

Xing Na paid the fee and came back, and a nurse was arranged here to take care of her, but under Xu Simu's repeated persuasion, Fu Wanxi was dragged away.

"I'll call Dr. Liang and ask him to send someone to take care of you, you are emotionally unstable right now, and it is not suitable for you to be here. I'll send you back first. ”

Coming to the underground parking garage, Fu Wanxi got into the car first, and Xu Simu bypassed the back of the car, came to the other side, and opened the door of the back seat of the car.

However......

The moment she opened the door, she paused.

She noticed that the tires in the back of the car were not quite normal.

It's a little bit steeper than the other one.

"Nana, come down and take a look. ”

Xing Na had already gotten into the driver's seat and got down again.

Just before getting into the car, she had already walked around the car to check, and now she is checking whether the various driving devices in the car are still good.

After Xu Simu said this, she was stunned to find that this tire was indeed not quite right.

She took the tools out of the trunk and replaced them with a spare tire just to be sure.

Xu Simu got into the car with confidence.

Since the last time, Xu Simu has been keeping an eye on every car he takes.

After all, if Lu Zhan was targeting himself but hurt someone else, it would be a sin.

There was nothing thrilling along the way, Xu Simu sent Fu Wanxi downstairs to the apartment and called the eldest sister Xu Mengtian.

Who knows, in addition to her, there is also Fu Hang who came downstairs with Xu Mengtian.

Fu Wanxi saw Fu Hang's face and suddenly turned cold.

She bypassed Fu Hang directly and walked out, her expression cold.

When passing by Fu Hang's side, Fu Hang grabbed Fu Wanxi's arm.

"When are you going home for the New Year?"

Fu Wanxi directly shook off Fu Hang's hand.

Fu Hang was almost caught off guard and was thrown away.

"I'm not going back. ”

Fu Hang frowned, and went to pull Fu Wanxi again, "Don't make trouble, what do you look like when you're alone outside?"

"Why can't I be out alone?" Fu Wanxi's chest heaved, "Do I have a home? I never had a home." ”

Her parents divorced, they each got married, they all had their own homes, their own children, she was like an outer, there was only one person, and there was no home for her.

"Then where are you going for the Chinese New Year?"

"I've been alone. ”

"I'll come with you. Fu Hang blurted out.

When he said this, he realized in surprise that he had slipped out.

He was about to say something else to redeem it, when he heard Fu Wanxi say in a cold voice: "Fu Hang, don't pretend anymore." ”

Fu Hang was stunned.

Fu Wanxi had already entered the door.

Xu Mengtian and Xu Simu made a gesture, followed in, and closed the door.

Xu Simu said to Fu Hang: "Song Liang was beaten up tonight, his injuries were very serious, and he is still in the hospital. ”

Fu Hang turned his head slowly, "Who?"

Song Liang.

He instantly understood the connection between Xu Simu's words and Fu Wanxi's cold attitude.

"She thinks I'm looking for someone to do it?"

Fu Hang pointed at his nose, looking a little surprised, but Xu Simu couldn't laugh.

She nodded.

Fu Hang banged on the door vigorously.

"Fu Wanxi! You don't ask me, just condemn me to be offended? Why do you think that Song or something was beaten by me? You come out! You explain it to me clearly! You can't be so indiscriminate!"

He had never paid attention to that Song Liang.

Even when Xu Simu opened his mouth to say the name Song Liang, his brain was frozen for a few seconds before he pulled this person out from under the cerebral cortex.

I called the door for a long time, but no one inside responded.

Fu Hang closed his eyes.

She didn't ask anything, and was directly sure that he had done it.

In her heart, is he Fu Hang such a person?

A neighbor next to him came out impatiently, "It's endless, and if you make any more noise, you will call the property." ”

Xu Simu pulled Fu Hang away.

"Are you here?" Xu Simu asked, "Do you want me to send you?"

Fu Hang came out of the elevator, his hands in his pockets, and a depressed expression on his face, "Does she really like that Song or something?"

When he was injured before, he hadn't seen her care so much.

It is estimated that he is going to die, and she will not come to see it and shed a tear.

Xu Simu didn't speak.

Walking to the parking lot, Fu Hang waved his hand, "Okay, don't follow me, I don't have anything to do, you can go." ”

Fu Hang took out a card from his pocket.

"The red envelope for your son, the password is four 8s, I was abroad at the full moon banquet at that time, and I didn't have time to go. ”

“……”

When Xu Simu heard the word "son", the corners of his mouth twitched.

The son and daughter are still not clear.

Xu Simu drove the door to get into the car, and Xing Na said, "Sister Mu, the tire that I replaced is out of gas." ”

And she was right.

It's just that someone moves their hands and feet, jogging gas, at first the slow speed will not be noticed, and when you get on the highway, the speed of the car is high, and then it is easy to have an accident.

When he went upstairs to see off Fu Wanxi just now, Xu Simu didn't let Xing Na go upstairs, just to avoid being taken advantage of again.

"I see, let's go back. ”

…………

This year, it's coming soon.

Compared with the Zhou family in previous years, it is even more deserted.

Xu Simu is in the Zhou family, this is the fourth year.

Early in the morning, Xiao Lingyun was awakened by the sound of firecrackers, but she didn't cry or make a fuss, staring at her black grape-like eyes, dripping and turning, as if she felt that the sound of firecrackers was very good.

Xu Simu fed Xiao Lingyun and asked Aunt Gu to put all the new clothes she bought two days ago on the bed.

"Yunyun, which one are you going to wear?"

Xiao Lingyun stretched out her little chubby hand and grabbed a small red skirt with a red down jacket on the outside.

Xu Simu put on a cotton sweater for Xiao Lingyun, put on a small skirt, and then put on a bright red down jacket, with a pair of small black leather boots on her feet.

After dressing up, Xiao Lingyun looked like a round ball.

Xu Simu looked at Xiao Lingyun and couldn't straighten up with a smile.

Xiao Lingyun's hair grew very well, so Xu Simu put her hair on her head and pulled several braids.

Zhou Hanyue came in from the outside, and saw his daughter sitting on the bed in a daze, letting Xu Simu make trouble.

As soon as Xiao Lingyun saw her father, she reached out to hug her.

Zhou Hanyue rescued his daughter from Xu Simu's "clutches".

"Here, daddy hug. ”

Xu Simu didn't look at Zhou Hanyue, and said, "I'm ready for everything over there, when will I go to visit my relatives." ”

Zhou Hanyue held Xiao Lingyun with one hand, and pulled Xu Simu with the other hand.

Since Lu Zhan and Xu Simu met once, Zhou Hanyue felt that Xu Simu was estranged from him again.

There is a long-term emotional cultivation, and there is a long-term emotional estrangement.

Now, Xu Simu is like this.

At the end of the day, you don't feel it.

However, a month later, it will be suddenly discovered that there is already a galaxy between the two.

Xu Simu lowered his head, watched Zhou Hanyue pull his wrist, and raised his head again.

Zhou Hanyue turned sideways, put down the hand holding Xu Simu, raised his hand, and gently pulled the hair on Xu Simu's sideburns.

Xu Simu felt as if something had been pasted on his sideburns.

She raised her hand and touched it, as if it were a clip.

"It's beautiful, let's go, let's go to the main building first. ”

Xu Simu followed behind Zhou Hanyue and took out his mobile phone to take a photo.

She paused.

The sideburns are a maple leaf hairpin.

It was exactly the same as the one Chu Fang gave her, but it was much better than the maple leaf card that Chu Fang gave her for a few dollars.

He...... When did you know.

Xu Simu looked at Zhou Hanyue holding her daughter's straight back, holding her daughter with one hand, with a broad back, as if she could withstand all the wind, frost, rain and snow for her.

Xu Simu lowered his head and covered the look in his eyes.

When Xu Simu and Zhou Hanyue arrived at the main building, Zhu Han and Zhou Hanlin had just come out with their son, and they just happened to have a face-to-face.

Zhou Hanlin only goes home a few times a year, and each time he doesn't stay for a long time, and it is not easy to meet once.

His hair was long and gray, tied up at the back of his head, he wore a pair of glasses, and he looked older than his real age.

"Big brother, sister-in-law. ”

Zhou Hanyue took the initiative to say hello.

Xu Simu also bowed his head in the back.

Zhou Hanlin's gaze skipped over Xu Simu and fell on Xiao Lingyun, "The little niece is so good-looking, come, call Uncle and send you a red envelope." ”

Zhu Han had already taken out the red envelope prepared in advance.

A red red envelope, pinched up thick.

Xiao Lingyun didn't know what to say, and the others were still confused, she couldn't laugh first, and turned her head to hug Zhou Hanyue's neck.

Zhou Hanlin couldn't laugh.

"This kid is really cute. ”

Xu Simu also gave the prepared red envelope to Zhou Lie.

In the past year, Zhou Lie has jumped a lot in size and sensible, got a red envelope, and said very obediently: "Thank you, auntie." ”

Xu Simu touched Zhou Lie's little head.

Time flies really fast.

Xu Simu still remembers that as early as two years ago, when she saw Zhou Lie for the first time, she was still a bear child jumping up and down, and Zhou Qingqing was still pulling her at that time, and said with disgust: The most annoying thing is the bear child.

Now, the bear children are not bears either.

"Can I say a few words to you alone?" Zhou Hanlin looked at Xu Simu.

Xu Simu nodded.

Zhou Hanyue first hugged Xiao Lingyun into the main building.

"Big brother. Xu Simu took half a step back and followed behind Zhou Hanlin.

Zhou Hanlin asked, "Do you remember when you were in North Africa?"

"Well, I remember. ”

Originally, I forgot.

However, since she thought about it, she felt that the memories that should have faded a long time ago became more vivid, and she could color the details of her entire memory.

"At that time, Ah Heng asked me if he was no longer a qualified soldier," Zhou Hanlin said, "Since you came, he has begun to spare his life, even if it is a dangerous occasion, he will still go, but he will not be so reckless, he will plan his route in advance, what needs to be done, so that he will suffer less damage." ”

Zhou Hanlin remembered the confused eyes of the young man at that time, and told him: "You are a very good soldier, soldiers also have families, and there are people they care about, and there is no conflict between home and country." ”

Lu Heng rarely drank alcohol, but that night, Zhou Hanlin gave Lu Heng half of the white dry he was carrying.

"Taste it. ”

Lu Heng took a sip, coughed spicily, and choked on tears.

"It's spicy. ”

Zhou Hanlin was already laughing and patted him on the shoulder.

Lu Heng coughed for a while, and finally got better, wiped the corners of his eyes, and was about to burst into tears.

He said: "Brother Hanlin, in fact, I'm not afraid of death, I'm just afraid that she will be sad." ”

He smiled, put his hands behind his head, and lay down to look at the sky, "If there really is a day, I hope she can forget about me and start a new life of her own." ”

Later, when Lu Heng died outside the old residential house, he thought in his heart that if there was such a day sooner or later, he would be willing to do it for her.

After listening to Zhou Hanlin's words, Xu Simu stood in place, not moving his steps for a long time.

Zhou Hanlin said: "Since you have amnesia, I haven't wanted to tell you in the past few years, but now that you think about it again, some words are about to be brought up again, at that time, Ah Heng also told me that Ah Yue also likes you, but he ...... silently"

Xu Simu paused this time.

"Who?"

"Ah Yue, Zhou Hanyue, third brother. ”

"No way. ”

Xu Simu directly denied it.

At that time, it was true that Zhou Hanyue would often come to Lu Heng, and it was because of Lu Heng, not because of her.

If he already liked her at that time, then why did he never express it......

What's more, when she filed for divorce two months earlier, he directly agreed?

Zhou Hanlin shook his head, "At that time, I didn't know, but now I can see that people's eyes can't deceive people." ”

Over there, Zhou Lie came to find Dad, "Dad, Dad, hurry back!"

Zhou Hanlin came back very rarely, stayed for a short time, and talked to Xu Simu here for so long, which made Zhou Lie feel extremely anxious, and he didn't care about Zhu Han's obstruction, so he ran back to call his father.

Xu Simu bowed.

When Zhou Hanlin had already walked a few steps away, Xu Simu suddenly stopped him.

"Big brother. ”

Zhou Hanlin paused, only to hear Xu Simu say: "Big brother, stay at home more time this year." ”

She said this for Zhou Lie and for Zhu Han.

Zhou Hanlin is away all the year round, and only Zhu Han is alone with his son, in this huge mansion.

At first, Xu Simu also felt that Zhu Han was too high-minded, and he didn't have anything to do with Shu Qing, Zhou Qingqing, or her.

Later, she saw the ups and downs in this mansion, and she finally knew.

This is the wisdom of self-preservation.

Zhu Han is a woman, with a child, and there is no protection from her husband by her side, once something happens, she can only protect herself.

That's why she will be in a safe corner, people don't offend me, I don't offend people.

Zhou Hanlin lowered his head and met his son's expectant gaze, he nodded, "Okay, Dad is playing with you at home." ”

Zhou Lieye sighed, jumping three feet high happily.

Xu Simu watched the father and son leave, stood in place for a long time, looked up at the golden sunlight that gradually emerged from the clouds, and turned into the main building.

At this time, Xiao Lingyun was sitting on Zhou Jianghe's lap playing with the candy in his hand.

Zhou Jianghe's back was a little stiff.

The little granddaughter in her arms is so delicate.

It's like an enamel doll, easy to break.

Xu Simu walked over and called respectfully: "Dad." ”

Zhou Hanlin raised his hand, "Simu is here, hurry up and sit down." ”

Xu Simu sat next to Zhou Hanyue and talked to Zhou Hanlin without a match.

After a while, the two also needed to go out to pay New Year's greetings, so they left with Xiao Lingyun in their arms, and Zhou Hanlin's family were ready to come over for a reunion dinner in the evening.

When leaving the main building, Xu Simu glanced back.

Zhou Jianghe sat alone on the sofa, alone, looking unusually lonely.

As early as two years ago, the Zhou family's mansion was still unusually lively, full of laughter and popularity.

But now......

And who do you blame?

It can only be blamed for being too greedy.

Thinking of his deceased wife in his heart, he can't accept his current wife, but he wants his children and grandchildren to be happy.

…………

Xu Simu and Zhou Hanyue went to Mrs. Zhou's courtyard to pay New Year's greetings.

The old lady was basking in the sun with a lazy cat at her feet.

"Grandma, we're coming. ”

The old lady hurriedly got up, "Mu Mu is here, hurry up and help me up." ”

Xu Simu stepped forward and took the initiative to help the old lady, "Grandma, you don't have to get up, just lie down." ”

"I have to give a red envelope to my great-granddaughter. ”

The old lady's speech was a little untidy, and her spirit was much worse than before.

Xu Simu watched the old lady go to get the red envelope with trembling hands, and her eyes turned red.

Mrs. Zhou said: "On the day of the New Year, what are you crying about?" ”

Xu Simu lay on the old lady's shoulder, "Tian Peipei should go to prison!

Mrs. Zhou comforted Xu Simu, "Mu Mu, I'm old, I'm old, I'm old, it's already useless, sooner or later, even if there is no Tian Peipei, I don't have a few years to live, my own body, I know it myself." ”

Xu Simu shook his head, "Grandma, you will live a hundred years." ”

Since he was a child, Xu Haijian's mother didn't like Xu Simu, and Xu Simu never felt the care of her elders.

It was Mrs. Zhou who made her really feel caring, the kind of love from the elders.

Mrs. Zhou laughed, "Where can you really live a long life, don't cry, look, your name is Yunyun to see your liveliness." ”

Xiao Lingyun was staring at Xu Simu, who was crying bitterly, without blinking, as if wondering why Ma Ma was crying.

"Meow~"

The cat curled up at its feet suddenly barked, and jumped onto the chair with light cat steps.

This sound alarmed Xiao Lingyun, and Xiao Lingyun's eyes looked towards the cat.

Well, in the old lady's place, Xiao Lingyun was completely attracted by the cat, and the little meat hand kept stretching out to catch it.

Xu Simu thought in his heart, so he went to discuss with Zhou Hanyue.

"It's time to call Luda back. ”

Since Xu Simu gave birth before and after giving birth, Luda's family was busy, and no one took care of her, so Zhou Hanyue sent Luda to Pei's house first.

Pei Dashao has a moral pastor at home, so he raised it with him.

Zhou Hanyue nodded, "I'll go and bring Luda back in the next two days." ”
